"Blachart" Galaxii Series: Book 1
Life hardly ever turns out the way people expect it to, and for Mykl d’Angelo, skipper and owner of the loderunner Pegasus, it had just taken a bad turn for terrible.
Due to a minor misunderstanding, his crew had stolen the 'Short Shit'- the ship’s only shuttle, leaving him and two others behind to crew the ailing ship on their own. As if that weren’t bad enough, just a few hours later the rickety old ship’s stardrive spectacularly failed in the middle of the middle of nowhere, killing Mykl’s two remaining crewmen.
Marooned alone in deep space, Mykl d’Angelo counted his blessings, offered prayers to any gods who specialized in miracles, and prepared to await (A) seemingly unlikely rescue, or (B) a lingering death.
Rescue came at last, but at a questionable price – as the I.S.S. 'Antares', a passing cruiser dispatched to investigate why a remote starbase near the frontier had fallen silent, was also home to an old flame of Mykl's - Commander Ripley Jones. She was the one that got away - and the Exo of the starship. There was no love lost between them at all. Or was there?
In the midst of the awkwardness and discomfort, the 'Antares' discovers the truth of what happened to Starbase 91 - and crosses paths with a legendary and fearsome Corsair – a man whose name sent shivers down the spines of lesser mortals.
Blachart… Blachart the Bloody.
